In St. Mark’s Square, Riccardo Cocciante, Andrea Bocelli, Edoardo Bennato, and the Orchestra of La Fenice will perform in a tribute to Ennio Morricone.

Starting tonight, Thursday 25, with Riccardo Cocciante’s timeless repertoire, followed on Saturday 27 by the international voice of Andrea Bocelli. On July 5, the Orchestra of Teatro La Fenice will pay tribute to Ennio Morricone, before the programme closes on July 6 with Edoardo Bennato and his rebel soul.
